No one knew what happened on King Hassan's side—and perhaps only Max would learn about it later.
But none of that mattered now, because the next big event had already arrived.
Similar to Victor's cross-platform situation, among the four representatives from Platform A, excluding Northern Star, Alex, and The Marble, there was also another notable contestant.
That was the infamous Randy.
He was considered a well-known strear for a popular competitive ga.
However, he'd had a massive public falling-out with so forr friends a while ago, which ultimately led to him being crowned the "clown" of that situation.
His feelings weren't misplaced, but his judgnt of friendship was definitely severely mistaken.
It just so happened that the Holy Grail War was gaining popularity during that ti.
Thinking of switching lanes to calm himself down and leave that painful place behind, Randy had successfully beco a famous Holy Grail War "technical" strear on Platform A.
However, his teaching style differed from others.
Randy, perhaps due to being betrayed so badly, didn't trust anything anymore. He was known for being cold and ruthless.
Servant bonds and such were unimportant.
Only victory, damn it, was everything.
He respected nothing.
But if he had to say he respected one thing—it was victory. He only respected victory.
Because of this, while he attracted one wave of viewers, he also caused another wave to completely distance themselves.
After all, this combat style was sotis emotionally difficult for people to accept.
But it genuinely helped in climbing the ranks.
Because compared to agreeing to outrageous requests from Servants, directly overpowering weaker Servants yielded better results.
Ranked matches primarily relied on a point system. If you could eliminate two opponents, you were 100% guaranteed to climb.
As for powerful Servants...
Randy wasn't an idiot. He knew when to pick his battles.
In short, thanks to this unique technical playstyle and streaming approach, Randy was affectionately known as "Control Bro" by his fans.
His classic catchphrase was: "I must use a Command Seal to control you."
And this title reached its peak after the ergence of black mud.
Players' continuous developnt and exploration—combined with the original lore—revealed that after summoning a Servant, adding black mud and then expending two Command Seals could directly corrupt the target into an Avenger-class existence.
One seal drove the opponent mad.
Another turned them dark.
Of course, you could add a third seal to make the opponent absolutely obey your commands, but Randy felt that wasn't necessary.
Because the opponent obeying your commands didn't conflict with them killing you.
Moreover, Command Seals couldn't continuously control a Servant indefinitely.
If a Servant had the will to resist, the seal's magical energy would be continuously consud. Once it ran out, the command beca useless.
So in Randy's opinion, it was better to save the third seal. Just in case.
The only drawback was that the corrupted Servant could only exist for two hours.
The addition of black mud could significantly boost the combat power of many weaker Servants.
But as a trade-off, their survival ti was drastically shortened.
Perhaps adding one more Command Seal could make the opponent exist for an extra hour.
But that was it.
Black mud was also a rare commodity, and Randy didn't want to gamble on the opponent's AI nature.
After all, victory was everything, damn it.
And in this joint stream, Randy once again brought in the black mud.
So, looking at the boundless wilderness around him and the distant town like a tiny black dot on the horizon, Randy didn't hesitate.
He directly threw out the summoning talisman in his hand and began the summoning ritual.
Honestly, compatibility summoning was quite reliant on luck.
But there was no other way. Ranked mode only allowed one Holy Relic, and although this was a custom room, Max had also stipulated that only one Holy Relic could be brought.
So everything depended on the black mud now.
But as the blue light of the summoning faded, the alluring purple figure before him severely shocked the normally composed Randy.
"Ara ara~ Hello, lovely Magician~"
The voice was lodious. Seductive.
"Servant, Saber... strange, I'm not Saber?"
She tilted her head, confused.
"Oh my~ My na is Minamoto no Raikou. As a general, I am not yet fully qualified, but please take good care of , okay?"
What blinded Randy's eyes?
It was her.
It was that legendary figure—the demon-slaying general herself!
Although it wasn't the genuine 2nd or 3rd ascension form, just a normal 1st ascension...
But looking at her attire, even Randy—who claid he would no longer be tied down by emotions—couldn't help but gulp.
And the viewers in the chat were all losing their minds.
[Mommy_Mike]: MOMMY! MOMMY! MOMMY!
[Culture_Carl]: What the hell, why are there so many Japanese Heroic Spirits?!
[Defending_Dan]: Upstairs, you're joking right? This maternal radiance! This... presence! Raikou is a woman who can absolutely be my mother!
[Sighing_Sam]: Sigh, Max's character design is still too powerful
[Pleading_Pete]: Randy, how about we just give up the strategy? Play this round properly! Don't do that black mud thing!
[Devil's_Advocate]: I actually think it's worth doing. After all, after she turns dark, there might be... less fabric
[Aesthetic_Andy]: Alright, this level is already enough. Any less and it loses its charm. This half-hidden feeling is the best.
[Cursed_Carl]: Traditional Japanese footwear! Facing such top-tier design, I'm ascending!
[Whale_Request]: Randy, I'll send you the biggest donation. I don't ask for anything else—just... appreciate her properly for , okay?
[Hair_Fan_Harry]: Wow, I envy that long hair!
[Height_Hugo]: As expected of soone with such presence—she feels like half a head taller than
[Confused_Connor]: By the way, who is Minamoto no Raikou?
[History_Harry]: She's a legendary demon-slaying general from Japanese mythology! Mother of the famous Kintoki!
[Concerned_Raikou]: "Master, what's wrong? Is there sothing wrong with your body?"
"Nothing."
Randy's voice was cold.
"But!"
He raised his right hand, Command Seals blazing.
"I command you with a Command Seal—FALL INTO MADNESS, Minamoto no Raikou!"
The first seal burned away.
"And then the second Command Seal! FALL! Transform into an Avenger with black mud, Minamoto no Raikou!"
The second seal burned away.
Black mud erupted from the ground, surging toward the Servant.
"Master! You..."
Raikou's eyes widened in horror.
"Ah!!! I don't want to! I don't want to beco like that again! I DON'T WANT TO!"
Although Raikou had D-rank Magic Resistance, she also possessed EX-rank Madness Enhancent.
Therefore, the Command Seal only needed to control Raikou for an instant.
The rest would be handled by the black mud.
And watching Raikou's painful wails—her eyes filled with tears as she was engulfed by the black corruption—
Randy forcibly pulled his head, which wanted to turn away, back to its proper position.
Yes, even though he had committed such a cruel act...
Precisely because he had committed such a cruel act, he had to witness it instead of escaping.
This was his responsibility.
He had to bear it.
He had to observe it.
And then achieve victory.
Only victory could bring everything.
Everyone would only rember the victors.
As for the supporting characters, they would quickly be forgotten.
The influence of this joint stream was undeniable. If he couldn't be the good guy...
Then he would be the villain to the very end.
[Horrified_Hannah]: HE ACTUALLY DID IT
[Crying_Cathy]: RAIKOU DIDN'T DESERVE THIS
[Angry_Andy]: Randy you MONSTER
[Conflicted_Carl]: I an... it IS effective strategy...
[Heartbroken_Harry]: Her screams... "I don't want to beco like that again"... she REMBERS
[Dark_Dana]: Control Bro strikes again
[Strategic_Steve]: Two Command Seals for an Avenger-class powerup... that's actually insane value
[Moral_Mike]: At what COST though?!
[Randy's_Response]: Victory. At the cost of victory.
The chat was split.
Half condemned Randy for his cruelty.
Half acknowledged the cold efficiency.
And in the field, where Raikou once stood—
A corrupted figure now rose.
Eyes glowing with madness.
Power radiating with darkness.
Avenger Raikou had been born.
And Randy smiled grimly.
Victory was everything.
He would prove it.
